Controlling bermuda grass is fairly simple, though neither cheap nor 100% effective.

1) hire a backhoe & dump truck
2) set up a 25 foot perimeter around the area to be controlled
3) remove all the soil inside the perimeter to a dpeth of 10’, and truck it to the nearest toxic waste site
4) install 6” concrete walls from the bottom of the hole to 3’ above the soil line, with anchor bolts to fasten the dome in step 6
5) clean and sterilize the truck thoroughly, and use it to fill the hole with sterile garden soil over a 16” layer of clean, washed sharp 1”-minus gravel (for drainage)
6) install a greenhouse dome over the site to keep out future contamination of bermuda seeds or roots
7) keep a flamethrower handy, to use at the first sign of a new infestation starting.

I know this is only a temporary solution, but should be good for 2-3 years of bermuda-free gardening. Good luck!

Finally a serious solution...but I doubt it works

So what yall are telling me is to give up on my garden and take up something else?

Yeah, temporary at best. ;)
